Lemonade 2,274 Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Some of these comments here.... chileĀ Ā The dramatics.... people are not looting small businesses or burning down family homes with people inside. They are sending their message to the government, government buildings and massive corporations!! A bunch of white supremacists literally stormed a government building ARMED and received very little (if any) repercussions!! Where was your fury then?

Target has also come out with a statement about the looting, and are helping to fund the looting of their own stores. It's a billion dollar company that can easily rebuild. Small businesses and black-owned businesses are the ones to worry about. I just gave an example. I said or whatever store, meaning EVERY store that's been looted on. I can't see the link with corrupted police officers/BLM and small or bigger stores..... It's like I would burn down your house cause I got fired imo which has ZERO SENSE to give an example.

It's unfair to them as well no mater how money money they make...they should loot Trump's and the actual officer possesions, not innocent people their possesions. Society has everyone's own personal value attached to the material value of goods and services. Target is the physical representation of that same issue. Looting is attacking where it hurts, and I love to see it. Plus, that particular Target financed police forces like the user above me said. This was an official message from the Office of the First Lady. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not blaming rioters, this does not even represent the riots. I actually support violent protest but not when its done with no purpose. What will BLM gain from attacking target? NOTHING but making their movement look bad.Ā Just because someone can financially gain, does not mean its okay to steal from them because a cop attacked you!

U just need to look.Ā So far the majority of people who suffered injuries suffered those injuries from the police and ng, and the majority of businesses belonged to big corporations... I really don't see the point of your reply - you don't have to condemn every single act that defies the definition of 'peaceful protest' - not having an issue with property belonging to a big corporation getting damaged does not mean you now also support killing of your relativesĀ Idk if you think having no issue with the former and an issue with the later makes you a hypocrite - if you do, you are very wrongĀ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
